“When we started the adoption process and didn’t know what to expect, Amy helped us through the whole process. She got us information in a timely manner and we were able to do all the preparations through email since we live over an hour away. We will use The Law Shop in the future when the need arises!” – Bill & Elaine
"In the spring of 2024 I once again found myself calling upon Amy to kindly hold my hand through a divorce - one that I never saw coming. This moment was traumatic for me, but Amy made it one of the easiest legal processes I have ever experienced. Everything was under control in the incredibly capable hands of her and the staff of the Law Shop. I cannot recommend The Law Shop highly enough - frankly there aren't words that match the gratitude and love I have for everyone who works there. If you want to feel cared for, heard, and valued then this is very much the place for you. The Law Shop understands that you exist outside of what has happened to you in your life, and will help you to navigate the situation in order to get you to the other side."

"Working with Amy was wonderful! Her advice and support gave me the courage to live life again. I was content with the way things were, but after talking to Amy and going through the process, I can LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST!! Thank you!!" - Cindy
"Not going to lie, my divorce was the worst time of my life. But through compassion, education, and immense knowledge of the law, Amy helped the process be as it could have been. She helped me understand my options and I chose with an educated view of both sides.
The biggest benefits to using Amy and her firm are: 1. Compassion for both parties. They support and work for you, but will let you know what they’ve seen with their experiences in the field and the potential impacts to my decisions. Also compassion doesn’t equal pushover by any means.
2. Timeliness: Amy, Andrea, and others responded right away. My ex’s lawyer took a week for some answers. Given the entire process once I involved Amy took 10 weeks, I felt like I mattered and not just a number. Everyone’s divorce process and timelines may be different, but knowing I could TEXT or CALL multiple people and get a prompt response took stress away during a stressful time.
3. Knowledge: Been there, done that. Doesn’t influence either way, just educates and helps you make the choices. It was my divorce and knowing what Amy had seen in past cases helped me make some tough decisions.
4. Cost: Fair rates compared to the other rates I was quoted at the big Des Moines firms.
If you don’t believe me, go and have a consultation with Amy, Andrea, or anyone else who is there as multiple people helped me through the process. You will see the reasons why they stand out vs the big firms." – Ty
